MAP

Thanks to all that have posted some of their pictures. They are awesome and really show how great that area is. Make one think about making the journey to enjoy it. A picture is worth a 1000 words....:bowdown::bowdown:

Living so close I rode over Friday and Saturday to meet up with some friends that were staying there. We went on a couple of waterfall rides. Ended up with over 700 miles on this beautiful weekend.

I have that same map...picked it up at a BBQ place in TN during a group ride. Awesome selection of routes! :thumbup:

I emailed pics of the Maggie Valley ride to some local riding friends. Hopefully I can bring a small group from Alabama to the event next year, combining it with a Tail of the Dragon trip. The scenery looks awesome! :thumbup:. Hopefully y'all won't mind if I bring along some 2-wheelers to the event.

Roads ridden

I have been down there many times. Some of the best roads are not the ones ridden by most people. You need to get on some of the side roads, that are every bit as good if not better than the Dragon, and have less traffic. Cherohala Skyway is a great ride.

I know, I know I posted on this thread a few times already, too bad!

Admittedly this was my first Spyder event, therefore one could say that my Bar was low. I have worked hundreds of trade shows over the years so I do know trade shows, just not ones with Spyders.

I do not know who organized it, worked it or kept it going, but this event was fun, informative and entertaining.

I think that I can safely say that most of the vendors were more than busy. SpyderPopshad three techs working from before the show opened until dark every night. Ultimate Seat and TricLED seemed to be the same. The Tattoo My Ride lady was always painting, etching and simultaneously talking with the next customer. Teressa and Rick at Value Accessories seemed to be working tag team with one at the register and one working the field.

I WANT TO SEND A BIG OLD BUCKEYE HUG TO THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE THAT WORKED SO HARD TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN! :bowdown:

Do you have contact information for Regina? I would like to pick her brain and get some information about logistics on this meet. We are moving the M109 Meet from Va. to NC, and I would like to see if there is a possibility that it could be moved to Maggie Valley, and what all would be involved in getting things set up.
As it has been stated, I am very impressed at how well things went.
The M109 meet has really been nice, but I feel like if we could possibly have it centered in Maggie Valley, the overall attendance and experience would be better. As for some people, they will be staying in Maggie Valley anyway.
Thanks Again Regina for another great year. And count me in for next fall. Reservations will be made as soon as we get the date.

Maggie Valley 2017

Maggie Valley was good again this year. A little weak on vendors, but the people were great. Loved the weather and a lot of good riding. I'm sure it takes a lot of work to put the event on. Hopefully they will do it again next year.
